Abstract
Abstract In this paper the author tells how the particular problem of delivering parts to the car-assembly line, that can not be handled efficiently by conveyors, is taken care of in the Chrysler plant. The quantities of materials to be handled are obtained from the daily-production schedule. Loads were standardized, and moved at regular intervals by jitneys. Requisition sheets for material are made up according to specified loads to meet transportation requirements, and are issued to the stock man at pick-up points. A copy of the requisition serves as a transportation order for the jitney operators.
